Frosty Cantaloupe Soup

SERVES: 6

CHILL TIME: 1 Hr

What's the secret to making our frosty cantaloupe soup so creamy? The secret "scoop" is the vanilla ice cream, and your gang is gonna love this cold fruit soup!

What You'll Need

1 medium-sized ripe cantaloupe, chunked (about 4 cups)
3 cups vanilla ice cream, softened
1/4 cup honey
Half of a 6-ounce can frozen orange juice concentrated, thawed
1 1/2 cup ginger ale, chilled
Fresh mint leaves

What to Do

Process cantaloupe chunks, ice cream, honey, and orange juice concentrate in a food processor until smooth, in batches if necessary; transfer to a large pitcher or serving bowl. Cover mixture, and chill for at least 1 hour.
Just before serving, gently stir in the ginger ale. Garnish individual servings with fresh mint leaves.

Notes

For variety, you might want to make Honeydew Soup. Simply chunk up half of a large honeydew instead of a cantaloupe, and instead of orange juice concentrate, use half of a thawed 6-ounce can of frozen limeade concentrate.
